Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Can someone poll Americans cause I vehemently oppose the purchase and subjugation of Greenland. And I also vote Trump gets run over by a train.
American here, I support the American purchase of Greenland.
It'll be nice to have the option to settle or visit there without having to go through customs.
Typical murican. "This will piss off a lot of other people but it'll make my life better so it's a good thing."
Eat shit asshole
That guy's account is 8 hours old. Everyone I've seen sucking orange nazi cock lately has been using new accounts. Very well could be bots or a troll farm.
That's not unique to Americans and you're really innocent to the world if you think otherwise.
I support a permanent Schengen entry ban for people like you
Hopefully the ETIAS authorization process will bar these types whenever that goes live
Well a question like this wouldn't be more absurd than most ESTA-Questions?
"Do you question or support attacks on the territorial integrity of the European Union and it's members"
I traveled to Europe for the first time only a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to enter (as an American). The customs officer at Frankfurt didn't utter a single word to me, just checked my passport and waved me through. Guess I'm too used to American government processes and institutions where efficiency and convenience are low priority for the end user.
The difference between security and security theater.
Americans only do theater. They do actual security in Europe
I hope you get deported.
You don’t need to “own” greenland for that, you could have lighter security like the EU has with say Switzerland.
